3.4.2 Wire guidance trucks
Qw W
When starting or continuing the truck after the wire guidance has been
deactivated, note the position of the drive wheel as manual steering is now
activated again.
Qw W
If an automatically guided truck is switched off, the wire guidance is no
longer active when the truck is switched on again. This situation can create
a risk of accidents! When you continue to travel a warning is sounded and
the speed is reduced. Apply push button (32) to re-activate the wire
guidance ("Wire guidance active" light (38) goes on) and re-align the truck.
Qw W
During alignment, the rear part may veer out when it reaches the guidance
wire (42).
– .Approach the guidance wire (42) at an angle
and at reduced speed.
When aligning, the truck should not be parallel
to the guidance wire. The optimum approach
angle is between 10° and 50°.
Tracking should preferably be in the load direc-
tion, as this involves less time and distance.
– When the truck is close to the guidance wire,
switch on the wire guidance with push button
(32).
The "guidance on" display light (38) changes
to active mode.
When the guidance wire has been reached
the truck is automatically guided.
When the guidance wire is reached tracking
automatically ensues at reduced speed. The
steering angle display (13) changes to "Track-
ing On" (43). The audible tracking signal
sounds.
